I have been classified as having Gerd or Gerd symptoms, have had throat scope, nose and throat scope,colon scope etc, have constant throat dryness, swelling issues etc in throat . It used to be just a little now it seems everything I eat affects my throat. This has been going on for a year or more. Now I have constant chest pain, and throat irritation. I feel that my lungs or something are not right. Have been to many apparently trying to figure it out.... nothing other than Gerd symptoms have been established
